analyses of elevations, the author deepens our understanding of
Lubetkin's contributions."
Library Journal, September 2013
"John Allan's masterly monograph on Lubetkin was originally
published just after Lubetkin's death. Twenty years later, it has
been given a well-deserved overhaul with the hope of bringing
Lubetkin's enduring oeuvre to the attention of new eyes."
